Urban Design: Submissions should demonstrate varied uses and tenures, attention to local assets, and legacy impact for stakeholder communities. Schemes can be built or unbuilt.

Emerging Talent: This award will be presented to student work or the work of an apprentice or practitioner with less than five years’ working experience in their field, with assessment based on technical proficiency, artistic flair, and likely future impact on their field.
